WebJunction reports that “It’s been 25 years since the passage of the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), and a new webinar series enlists advocates and experts to explore issues of accessibility and inclusion from the perspective of visitors, staff and program users in museums, libraries, archives and other cultural institutions.
To support this important topic, the American Alliance of Museums is inviting you to host a “Watch and Talk” viewing event at your library. This is a learning experience enriched by watching a webinar and then discussing it with your colleagues, and there’s no cost to you as a host, or for your attendees!
